What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors find Kultaranta Garden to be a beautiful and relaxing place, offering a unique experience as the President's summer residence. The free Friday evening access is highly appreciated, though some note the secure atmosphere and discreet security presence. The garden's flowers and fountains contribute to its tranquil charm.
"Was a great privilege to visit the summer home of Finland's president. Beautiful place and relaxing environment, even though you have small window of time there and feel like you are entering a secure compound you do feel like you entered the grounds of the Whitehouse. Also don't be freaked out if you see plain clothed men in bushes they are the security police watching your every move. ☺️"
